Scene understanding using DSO Cognitive Architecture

This paper presents how a novel cognitive architecture, DSO Cognitive Architecture (DSO-CA), has been applied to scene understanding. DSO-CA is able to bring to bear different types of knowledge to solve problems. It has been applied to object recognition in images. The cognitive architecture is able to fuse bottom-up perceptual information, top-down contextual knowledge and visual feedback in a way similar to how human utilizes different knowledge to recognize objects in images or video scene. This enables the cognitive system to achieve scene understanding.
